" My grandfather was an outspoken anti-communist and former Cabinet member in the Eisenhower administration. He worshipped Hoover almost as much as he hated Martin Luther King."
"In an episode that helped write the final chapter in my escape from Mormon madness, I went to the press to inform it of my elderly grandfather's deteriorating physical and mental condition.
The church knew of his situation but chose to mislead its members into believing he was still mentally alert and performing his daily prophetic duties.
Based on my own direct observations, I knew the opposite was the case. He was largely confined to his recliner in his apartment, where he spent his days dressed in a jumpsuit and diapers, wrapped in a blanket, being spoon-fed by his nurses, incapable of speaking more than a few words and unable to recognize visitors."
Steve Benson (Hinkleys grandson)
